Best solar panel angle in Dianra
Fixed array facing south (azimuth 180°). Energy per kWp from NASA POWER monthly climate, including clouds, temperature and snow reflection.
11°collects the most energy over a year: 1537 kWh per kWp.
0°gives the most in the darkest month — the one an off-grid system is sized for.

A fixed array in Dianra produces the most over a year at 11°. The design month for an off-grid system is August: at 0° it makes 3.65 kWh per kWp a day, 3% more than at 11°, and costs 1% of the yearly total. Why steep panels win winter.
Off-grid solar in Dianra at 70°
Daily energy of 1 kWp by month. Bars: panels at 70°. Line: panels at 11° (year-round best).

Sizing example. To run a 1 kWh-per-day load through July on LiFePO4 batteries (charge controller, battery and inverter losses included) you need about 890 Wp of panels at 70°, versus 330 Wp at 11°. Here the lower tilt is the better winter choice — the sun stays high enough. Size your own system.

How Dianra compares in Ivory Coast
Against the other 181 places in Ivory Coast with climate data, for a fixed array at its best angle.
15thof 182 places in Ivory Coast for sunshine: 5.25 peak sun hours a day on flat ground.
+11%solar energy a year compared with the average place in Ivory Coast: 1,537 against 1,384 kWh per kWp.
+13 mindaylight on the longest day, compared with Abidjan: 12 h 39 min against 12 h 26 min.
11°best year-round tilt here; across Ivory Coast it runs from 5° in Tabou to 12° in Tengréla.
Of the 182 places in Ivory Coast, Tengréla gets the most sun (5.62 peak sun hours a day) and Gbabam the least (4.51); Dianra ranks 15th. In its darkest month, July, 1 kWp of off-grid panels at 70° makes 1.33 kWh a day here, against 1.19 kWh on average in Ivory Coast. The shortest day lasts 11 h 36 min, −13 min compared with Abidjan.
